The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Resealing in Pathhead: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Do you need bath resealing in Pathhead?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
